Q: We had to activate the tcloseExpandedXP to 1.
So far, that is OK. But as soon as we do so, The main menu-titles are aligning to the LEFT side! We could not get them to align to right as needed.
Any idea how this could be fixed?
A: You can try blank images before the top-menu items.
["<img src='blank.gif' width=84 height=12>Text","", , , , , , , , , , ],
["|Text","general/forms/form01.php?c2=80&c3=250&fa=1", , , , , "fmain", "5", , , , ],

Q: How do I highlight the current tab in a hover tab menu?
A: This Tabs menu can save pressed item automatically within1 page only.
If you open another page, the menu can't remember presseditem.
You should do that manually using Javascript and menu parameters
( var bselectedItem and var var bselectedSmItem) or using any server-side script (php, asp, etc.)
Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab.
If your site is written on PHP you can set "bselectedItem" and "varbselectedSmItem" parameters based on your link beforeyou call your data file.
For example, move "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parametersfrom your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
Try that.
Q: Still having trouble with placing the javascript window menu on a fixed position on firefox. So far its only at my testpage. The "Trial Version"-Button however stays at the correct place while the javascript window menu itself moves down if you scroll down... I hope that is fixed in the full version??
A: Now you're using floating feature for the javascript window menu:
//--- Floatable Menu
var floatable=1;
var floatIterations=3;
var floatableX=1;
var floatableY=1;
var floatableDX=15;
var floatableDY=15;
If you don't want to use it you should set:
var floatable=0;
Q: Do you have a template example of creating menu javascripts using data stored in a database?
A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files,
so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:
